This week we had the hottest September days for 100 years but this morning was misty and cold. The leaves and flowers were bejewelled with dew-drops and the spiders webs bright with fine mist. It felt very Autumnal.
But there's a way to go yet with the Summer. Garden flowers are having a final fiesta before the dark days come along and the trees take the glory with their reds and golds.
I went walk-about with the camera and found the garden was painted pink!

Pink Japanese anenomes are everywhere. They seed prolifically but cheer up the garden after the sumer bedding has mostly gone over. |

These pink roses have been flowering all summer and still have plenty of buds. |
